Getting started

To try the app you need to follow a few simple steps:

Step 1: Intalling the latest version of Android Studio ADT.

LiveScore is built with the latest Android Studio version 2.3.3 and Android Development Tools 26.0.0. NOTE: Android has officially stopped the development of eclipse ADT so its highly recommended that you migrate to Android Studio. If you do have Android Studio already installed you can skip installation of Android Studio section and go to Import sections. However, We would still advise you to install the Android Studio ADT all the same.

1. Go to the Android Developer Page
2. Download the Android Studio ADT. This should contain the latest version of ADT plugin
3. Extract the files somewhere on your computer.
4. Run Android Studio.exe

Once done, you should be able to have android studio running

Step 2 Import LiveScore Project to Android Studio

1. On Android Studio go to File -> New -> Import Project
2. Choose Android -> Existing Android Code Into Workspace then click Next
3. Browse to the location of the folder called source folder, LiveScore.
4. Allow the project to build. Working network will be required while building the project
5. Once build is over, It will indicate if there is any error. No error means that you are good to go

You'll see the following screen (probably with white theme)

If there is some errors, try to clean and rebuild the project. They are located in Build menu

Run LiveScore

1. You can run your android applications on your phone or emulator. Start the emulator or plugin the phone into the computer.
2. Click on Run menu and select Run command
3. In the next dialog, you should see the phone you plugged in as one of the devices. If you phone is not indicated then the phone drivers is not installed on the computer.
4. Android Studio will launch an emultaor if no device is found.

Change Launcher icon

Replace the following files in the res folder, with your own icon named ic_launcher.png :

• res/mipmap-hdpi/ic_launcher.png with 72x72 px
• res/mipmap-mhdpi/ic_launcher.png with 96x96 px
• res/mipmap-xhdpi/ic_launcher.png with 144x144 px
• res/mipmap-xxhdpi/ic_launcher.png with 192x192 px

Note: You need the 512x512 px size for publishing to Google Play.

Change Applcation name

The application name can be changed from the strings.xml file in the values folder.

1. Open the res folder
2. Navigate to the values folder and open the strings.xml file
3. Change the app_name value to the name you want

Changing package name

Every application in Google Play has an unique application name usually in the form of com.example.app. Before you can publish your application you need to change the application name to something unique (like use your domain as prefix in reverse order). To change it, you need to:
